H5. The more positive an individual’s job satisfaction, the lower the turnover intention.
H6. The more positive an individual’s attitude toward using an implemented HRIS, the lower the turnover intention.
As discussed above, if an HRIS implementation induces stress at the individual level and the perceived change is threatening,
an employee will consider leaving her job. Thus, H6 states, the employee attitude regarding using an HRIS has a direct
impact on turnover intention. Nonetheless, if an HRIS changes an individual’s job, the perceptions of the change object also
influences that individual’s job satisfaction, since job satisfaction reflects a general attitude about the job situation.
Fig. 1 illustrates our research model of HRIS impact on HR personnel job satisfaction and turnover intention. We assume
that the perception of the HRIS-induced changes in an HR department influences employee job satisfaction and turnover
intention, such that the model comprises two technology-related beliefs – perceived usefulness and ease of use – and attitude
regarding the new information system from technology acceptance research as well as job satisfaction and turnover
intention as work-related consequences. In the next section, we provide empirical evidence for the proposed model.
